HIT THE BARRE

Maya is a professional model who grew up dancing in her mum’s ballet studio. Here she fell in love with barre and dance. She’s training with Mellie, who’s captain of adidas Runners in LA. Bringing their workout into the studio, the two are able to learn from each other. The intensity varies, but the focus stays high.

MAYA

WHY BARRE?

“Barre is a great way for me to stay toned and balanced. It’s both physical and mental. Focusing on each part of your body is key to building strength.

HOW DO YOU WORK IT YOUR WAY?

“Workouts that are similar are yoga and Pilates; both are controlled full-body workouts that strengthen and tone. Barre is easy to do at home, at your counter space or anywhere with a chair.”

THOUGHTS ON THE OUTFIT?

“The bra and tights were very form-fitting and light. The material was extremely comfortable and easy to move in. I love the style and fit of both.”

The bra supported me so well, unlike most sports bras I’ve tried. I love the material and straps. The fit is perfect, and very easy to move in. -Maya

Mellie

WHY WARM UP?

“Warm-ups are definitely needed! You’re just asking to get injured if you don’t warm up. I like to do dynamic stretches before a workout.”

HOW DOES BARRE HELP YOU RUN?

“I’ve found with running that strength training is 100 percent essential. It’s hard to run without strong legs, core, shoulders and even arms.”
